WILLIAMS RACE DAY HOSPITALITY: Canada F1 GP 2023

On 18th June 2023 we were back at the Williams Experience Centre for ‘Race Day Hospitality’. This week was for the Canada F1 GP.

Formula 1 has a rich tradition in Canada stretching back to 1967, when the country first hosted a round of the World Championship. For the first ten years, the race was held at Mosport Park in Ontario (8 races) and Circuit Mont-Tremblant (2 races), before safety concerns saw the event move in 1978 to its current home on a man-made island in the St Lawrence river in Montreal.

From its debut in 1978 to 2019, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve was absent only twice from the F1 calendar; in 1987 and in 2009 when contractual issues saw the event lose its place to Abu Dhabi. In March 2017, the organizers signed a new contract with the Formula 1 Group that will see the race remain on the calendar until at least 2029.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Canadian Grand Prix was cancelled in 2020. It was reinstated on the 2021 calendar, but travel restrictions saw the race cancelled for a second year in succession. The race returned in 2022, with 338,000 fans flocking to the circuit over the Canadian Grand Prix weekend.

After being forced off the calendar for two years, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve announced in April 2021 that it had extended its contract to host the Canadian Grand Prix through to 2031. Originally called the Île Notre-Dame Circuit after the island on which it is located, the track was renamed in 1982 after the tragic death of home-grown hero Gilles Villenueve, who won the inaugural 1978 race at the circuit in a Ferrari.

The island on which the circuit is located also hosted the World Expo in 1967 – the most distinctive reminder of which is the Biosphere dome, now an environmental museum.  Île Notre-Dame was also the scene for rowing and canoeing events at the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Both Île Notre-Dame and neighboring St Helen’s Island are part of Parc Jean Drapeau, a recreational space which is popular year-round with locals.
